Build using this command line: | |
make CONFIG=vbox bin/intel--virtio-net--pcnet32.isarom | |
Max size of a VirtualBox ROM is 56KB, 57344 bytes. There should be no need | |
to pad the image as long as the binary is smaller or equal to this size. | |
To use the ROM in VirtualBox you need to enable it using this command: | |
vboxmanage setextradata global \ | |
VBoxInternal/Devices/pcbios/0/Config/LanBootRom \ | |
/absolute/path/to/intel--virtio-net--pcnet32.isarom | |
NB: If you build the ROM using the .rom prefix then it'll be built as a PCI | |
ROM, which won't work properly in VirtualBox. The error message you'll see | |
is "No more network devices", which is somewhat confusing. If you enter the | |
shell and use the "autoboot" command things will work as intended. Remember | |
to always build as a .isarom to avoid this issue. |
